Solo Leveling 17

Cuando me apuñalaron, luché con todas mis fuerzas para llamar a mi hermano. Solo cuando mi conciencia comenzaba a desvanecerse, él respondió, con un tono de evidente fastidio. —¿Qué quieres esta vez? —Hermano, ayuda... No pude terminar la frase. Me interrumpió bruscamente. —¿Por qué siempre tienes problemas? A finales de mes es la ceremonia de graduación de Luna. Si no vienes, ¡te juro que te mataré! Dicho esto, colgó el teléfono sin dudar. No pude soportar el dolor. Cerré los ojos para siempre, con lágrimas aun corriendo por mi rostro. “Hermano, no tendrás que matarme. Ya estoy muerta.”

Soy la falsa heredera malvada que creció en una familia rica. Después de mi muerte, mi amor de la infancia publicó mis fotos íntimas, llamándome una cualquiera que solo sabía seducir hombres. Tras lo cual, la gente llegó a casa gritando que me merecía la muerte. Mis papás, para librarse de mi mala suerte, quemaron toda la mansión esa misma noche e incluso les dieron mis cenizas a los perros. Todos decían que me lo merecía. Hasta que el día de la gran boda en vivo entre la verdadera heredera y mi amor de infancia, recibieron mi regalo de bodas.

Al renacer, decidí escribir el nombre de mi hermana en la solicitud de matrimonio. Esta vez, le concedí a Lucas Delgado su deseo. En esta vida, me adelanté: vestí a mi hermana con el traje de novia y le coloqué el anillo de compromiso. Yo misma orquesté cada encuentro entre ellos. Cuando él la llevó a Ciudad Esmeralda, sin dudarlo partí al sur para estudiar. Porque en mi vida pasada, incluso a los cincuenta años, Lucas y nuestro hijo seguían rogándome que me divorciara. Así que cumplí su último deseo: que estuviera con ella. Al volver a vivir, solo anhelé desplegar mis alas... libre de amor.

Con solo mencionar los preparativos de la boda, el primer amor de mi prometido salió corriendo en llanto. Luis Enrique me abofeteó con tal fuerza que caí al suelo, mirándome con odio puro: —¿Tan desesperada estás por casarte, Gabriela? ¿Tan patética que necesitas forzarme a esto?¡Posponemos la boda otra vez! Me llevé la mano a la mejilla ardiente, pero ni siquiera latió más rápido mi corazón. Con esta, ya eran ocho postergaciones. De los 28 a los 30 años, esperé en vano una respuesta. Esta vez, hice las maletas en silencio para salir. Al fin entendí: este matrimonio nunca debió existir.
